It’s time for our First Annual National Gadfly New Year’s Predictions. I use a scientific formula based on several factor including (but not limited to):
- Whatever my daughter is watching on TV as I type
- Things overheard on public buses
- The advice of a recently exiled dictator from central Asia
- Betting against my gut instincts
- Playing mumblety-peg with 3 Gypsies
- Dice
- Coin-toss
Unlike many other well known annual prognostications, my formula is the only set of predictions that are board certified and 100% guaranteed by the Bank of Iceland, up to $100,000, payable in credit default swaps upon demand.

- The Department of Homeland Security and the Transportation Safety Administration move their offices into abandoned, toxic trailers purchased for victims of Hurricane Katrina.
